SEEDING & TIE BREAKERS:
Seeding is based on win/loss record, In case of tie, points between two or more teams, the following tiebreaker system will be used to determine the seeding of the teams:
1. Head-to-head record between the two teams that are tied for the final spot (head-to-head record only applied if tie is between the two teams).
2. Fewest runs allowed between the tied team/s.
3. Highest total run differential; NOTE: Total run differential is the sum of each game's differential.
4. If there is still a tie, then the teams which are tied will come down to a coin toss.
